Q. 6 (A) Compare and contrast force and | stiffness methods with respect to points mentioned in first column of the foll
Q. 6 (A) Compare and contrast force and | stiffness methods with respect to points mentioned in first column of the following Table. Also comment which method is amenable for automation and why? (Points 10) Stiffness Method Force Method Points of consideration Is the method applicable for structural analysis of indeterminate structures? Does the method satisfy equilibrium, compatibility and force-displacement relations? In what sequence does the method enforce equilibrium, compatibility and force-displacement relations? What is a primary structure and which method needs to define the primary structure? Is there a unique way to choose redundant forces in the force method? If not, what is its implication? What are the primary unknowns in the methods under consideration? What method do we use to solve for the primary unknowns? What are the secondary unknowns in the method under consideration? In force method, we define flexibility coefficients while in stiffness method, we define stiffness coefficients What is their physical meaning? Please write it in respective columns under force and stiffness method Are both flexibility and stiffness matrices square & symmetric?
